Seren Cornerstone Poetry Festival




I'm looking forward to hosting this event with some excellent new and emerging poets in Cardiff a week Saturday. Come along and find your new favourite poetic voices...

Sat 9 Feb 10.30am

Stage: MEZZANINE


Parthian Editor and poet Susie Wild introduces six authors, all poets who live and work in Wales.

Our showcase aims to give you a sampler of these varied voices, all who have made an impact with their new collections: Mab Jones, Ailbhe Darcy, Rhys Owain Williams, Christina Thatcher, Nia Davies, and Mari Ellis Dunning, will each read for ten minutes from recently published books.

Tickets for this event are also available on the door (£7.50)
